I really gave Joe the benefit of the doubt with all this but after seeing the report it looks like he was a main character in the cover up. I have been very surprised by all the comments online on new stories of people still defending him like oh its not that bad his good stuff cancels it out. This attitude is what is responsible for the cover up in the first place.

I dunno, I think the staff would really get a kick out of all the jokers coming in and asking for children to rape. And also if they have any showers on site available for those who want to rape quickly and then be on their way.

FTFA :But on Thursday, Knight released a statement saying: "Throughout Joe Paterno's career, he strived to put young athletes in a position to succeed and win in sport but most importantly in life. Joe influenced thousands of young men to become better leaders, fathers and husbands. According to the investigation, it appears Joe made missteps that led to heartbreaking consequences. I missed that Joe missed it, and I am extremely saddened on this day. My love for Joe and his family remains."
